My sisters’ notoriously stupid cat Jonesy broke his leg and had to have a pin put in. As if this wasnt bad enough my nephew was playing with his big magnet at christmas and accidently stuck it to his leg. The kid was pretty upset that he might have hurt him but Jonesy was fine and proceeded to lie on his back in the middle of the living room for the rest of the day.

Awww! Love the custom cast! Get well soon, Ferg! One of my kitties is a Fergus so he has a similar name (assuming she’s a Fergie). :-) He’s been shaved for testing before too, so I called him “Ferginude” during that time.

Poor Ferg. But definitely lucky too, since he/she clearly has devoted parents who have even color coordinated her sock to the furniture. And put her onto her favorite (I’m guessing) chair in the sun. Now if they’d just take the camera away.. !

I feel like lack-of-modesty
was kind of forced on me
at the hospital. Maybe that’s where Ferg got such a relaxed attitude and he
stayed that way at home. Me,I got my modesty back FAST once I got out of that hospital.

[…and Hanners and Dora and Marten and Faye and Pintsize and not so much Sven, though to be fair, I probably would’ve had a thing for Gina too, were I in the same situation, which I’m not – Ed.]

This is my sister’s cat Fergus!! Sooo shocked to see him up there when i opened my Daily Dose of Cute this morning! I sent this pic in ages ago, he’s walking again now.
He’s a boy, named Fergus, originally from Houston TX (rescue cat), now happily residing in Surrey, England. Poor thing came home with several spiral fractures one morning, and it’s taken months and months of work to get him back in good health.
The nurses at the vets lurve him, and always give him special dressing wraps, he’s their hero.
Go Ferg!

PS – lack of modesty is entirely due to the shaving – he’s usually very demure! Fergus is a sweetheart – he looks a bit put out in this pic as he was on vet-enforced cage rest for nearly two months, and this was his daily supervised ‘outside’ time. He’s much better now, putting weight on his leg when he walks etc. and jumping up onto the sofa even.

Iggle, thanks for the update! I love the fact that the vets make him fancy dressing wraps. That’s very sweet. But as a Texan now living in England, exactly what sort of accent does his little “meow” have now?!

Thanks to everyone for their sweet comments! Fergus is my cat and we seriously adore him, he’s the most gorgeous boy. He’s also incredibly expensive (we had no insurance so he’s practially bankrupt us – who would think it costs SO much to fix a cat’s leg?). He is doing much better and hopefully only has 2 weeks of dressing changes left and then he can run free – yay! We love him and have passed on all your various snuggle requests!
A very proud cat mummy, xxx
